The Fordham University Excellence in Theatre Scholarship is awarded to the top two theatre admits. The scholarship is awarded based on an artistic evaluation of the student through either an audition or an interview. The award covers the student's full tuition cost (excluding fees) at Fordham University. The actual amount of the scholarship will equal the total tuition, less any Federal Pell Grant, state assistance, and any other tuition-specific resources or scholarships. The scholarship will be adjusted for half of the other non-tuition-specific outside resources or scholarships. The remaining half may be used for additional educational expenses. The awards also cover the average cost of a double room or actual charges, whichever is less (excluding meal plans and fees), if the student lives on campus. Please visit the scholarship's website for more information.
